Ok... This sounds so lame..How can i have more of a social life?

Question

I know this sounds pathetic!!! I see my friends at the weekends sometimes, but I spend most of them doing nothing at home as there all really busy, as they go to clubs, church etc. Also a few of my friends have just got puppies so are having to spend all there spare time with them. I don't want to sound like a whiney brat, but I don't really have any hobbies, and I've tried to join the clubs that my friends do, but i'm not religious and I don't want to go be a girl guide or whatever!!! Can anyone think of anythings I can do, or maybe a hobbie. How can you meet new people without going to a new school?

Again, sorry this sounds so whiney XD Thanks!!!

Answer 1

maybe you could go hang out at a record store or anywere to meet people try not to spend to much time on your computer or maybe if you get a part time job at a clothing store i have made a lot of friends at work

Answer 2

be independent, if you find yourself doing something that you don't enjoy with your friends, then try to find other activities to keep entertained.  I would say that at my school, the art people were always really nice and the dance girls (will you know) were kinda mean.  But dance was a skills thing and as long as you can dance, then heck yeah no one can kick you off the team and everyone respected you for what you can do.  

join clubs that interests you.  maybe take up photography, playing an instrument, a language club?  

highschool is all about finding yourself and you don't always have to be with your friends to do that!

good luck!

Answer 3

i've had the same problem. but what you need to do is start talking to people, and step out of your comfort zone obviously there is no one in there for you so step out and discover. join sports that your friend arent in, you'll make even more friends. i joined volleyball and i made sooo many new friends. Join some things at the park district or try some more clubs. go on a vacation to pull yourself together, get self confidence and start making new friends. for hobbies try making braclets or doing art something creative that expresses you. good luck!

Answer 4

It doesn't sound whiny, I know a lot of people who could make it look worse.

I sort of have that problem too, but here goes I guess:

First I have to say - It's okay to not go to Church and not be religious, forget what anyone says about God and salvation...because, you know, if you're a good person God would let you into Heaven anyways. (If it exists.)

Maybe you could try hanging out at a local mall, or shopping center to meet new people. Sports is always a fun, healthy option too. For example, soccer, basketball, swimming, volleyball team.

You could also try getting a part-time job, like at a fast food restaurant or volunteer at an animal shelter like ARF, the library, or a nearby foodbank.  

Answer 5

Join an art club or something, like a sport. Be original and do something none of your friends are doing. Then you'll start to meet people and stuff. good luck.
